P2 · CHAPTER 10 · WORKFLOW TRANSLATION
Workflow translation for “The Half-Life of Skills”
Apply “The Half-Life of Skills” to a real workflow by naming the trigger, owner, evidence, decision, control and failure path. A useful translation changes operating detail, not vocabulary.
WORKBOOK SEQUENCE
- 01
Choose one repeated task related to this thesis: Some skills are expiring faster than ever. Others are appreciating just as fast. Knowing which is everything.
- 02
Use the chapter signals—The Shelf Life of Competence; What Models Are Absorbing; Depreciation Is Not Disappearance; The Skills That Appreciate; Taste Is a Form of Compression; Judgment Under Uncertainty; Problem Framing Is Leverage; Orchestration Is the New Managerial Skill; Rebalancing the Skill Portfolio; Learning at the New Clock Speed; The New Apprenticeship; The Human Premium; A Practical Curriculum for Being Early; The Durable Edge—to identify where the current workflow loses time, quality or learning.
- 03
Define the trigger, input, AI-assisted step, human decision, measurable output and stop condition.
- 04
Run the workflow once with a real case; record the failure before expanding scope.

Leave with a decision artifact.
A bounded workflow card with one owner, one metric, one review gate and one documented failure response.
